Avoid getting caught in the guillotine

POST
Sometimes, you can get caught in a guillotine when approaching for a single-leg. Watch this excerpt from the "Fundamentals" program, and learn a simple detail to save your neck.

Once you save your neck, you can use the same detail to take your opponent's back.

Click here to watch the whole class, where Master Rickson shows essential drills, taking the back, escaping the side control, and how to be comfortable in hell.
